Day 376 of The Disney With Sean Show started before sunrise between the Swan and Dolphin and became a Walt Disney World morning shaped by moments we never could have planned.
Early in the walk, a boat wake moved through the water near Disney’s BoardWalk and transformed the reflection before our eyes. Ten minutes into the show, we already knew we had found a Short.
From there we walked the BoardWalk toward Disney’s Hollywood Studios, doubled back through the Swan and Dolphin area, spent time around Disney’s Yacht Club and Beach Club and shared our Sunday guided meditation:
I don’t have to carry the whole week at once.
The reminder was simple. Sunday can simply be Sunday. Monday will arrive on Monday. We do not have to carry yesterday and tomorrow at the same time.
Then the Disney Skyliner carried us into the next part of the morning. At Disney’s Riviera Resort we found a fountain and landscaping that suddenly lined up into a Hidden Mickey. We continued into Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort, picked up coffee and a blueberry muffin, sat on the beach and wandered around Barefoot Bay before heading back toward EPCOT.
Inside EPCOT, we let World Showcase become a drift-and-linger morning through Morocco, Japan, art, details and whatever caught our attention.
And then we accidentally walked into a surprise character pop-up.
Pinocchio. Piglet. Winnie the Pooh. Geppetto.
I had no plan for any of it, and after hugging Winnie the Pooh I unexpectedly started crying. They were simply tears of joy — one of those small Disney moments that lands harder than you expect.
We eventually made our way back toward the Beach Club and Yacht Club, found even more details I had somehow never noticed, and then I made the decision to stop the show when I realized I had pushed too far in the heat. I sat down, cooled off, made sure everyone knew I was okay and took an Uber home.
Day 376 was a reminder of why these wandering Sundays work: when we leave enough room in the day, the reflections, Hidden Mickeys, character hugs and quiet little surprises have somewhere to find us.
Thank you to the Walt Disney World Cast Members, resort teams, transportation teams, custodial, security, food and beverage and horticulture teams and everyone behind the scenes who made the morning possible.
I Am Hear.
